Additional grammar rule

Remember, if we're going to take the time to read your messages, you can take the time (even though it's less than a fraction of a second) to correctly spell words.
Upon three recorded instances of use of such shorthand, the offending user will be warned for rule violations.
Please remember that this rule does not affect spelling errors. While we encourage attentive spelling, don't feel like you're going to be in trouble for making a spelling error (if that were the case, nearly everybody would be banned by now). This rule only applies to deliberate shorthand as explained above.
Good day.

ROTFL (Rolling on the floor laughing)
RTFM (Read the Fine Material) and certainly
GNU (Oops that one is recursive so it would go on forever) ?
There is a whole body of acronyms out there that have a good bit of heritage. Maybe they would be OK because they are acronymns?

The ones WB mentioned could be done in 3-5 characters; yours require about 20-40 and an abbreviation is very handy.
